About Us

The Barstow Senior Center is a vibrant, compassionate hub dedicated to enriching the lives of seniors throughout the High Desert. As a nonprofit 501(c)(3), we provide meaningful programs, supportive services, and a lively calendar of activities that encourage wellness, independence, connection, and community engagement. From nutritious daily meals to fitness classes, social gatherings, volunteer opportunities, and special events, our goal is to offer seniors a place where they can learn, laugh, participate, and thrive. We believe aging should be active, fulfilling, and full of possibilities — in other words, we’re nowhere near ready for the rocking chair yet.
